Veneers also referred to as dental laminates, are wafer-thin custom-made shells crafted out of dental ceramic or composite resin that are designed and bonded onto the front side of teeth. Veneers are done to achieve highest aesthetic results and are the style of the day and have made smile designing possible. Cosmetically they are an excellent option for correcting stained, chipped, decayed, spaced out or crooked teeth.
There are two main types of materials used to fabricate a veneer:Placing veneers is usually an irreversible process, because it's necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your tooth to accommodate the shell. Your dentist may recommend that you avoid some foods and beverages that may stain or discolor your veneers such as coffee, tea or red wine. Sometimes a veneer might chip or fracture but for many people the results are well worth it.
